Long post alert!!!! Sooooo let's talk about toxic work…read moreenvironments. Unitech Training Academy has to be one of the WORST places to work or attend (don't send yourself or your child to that school). Why here's a few reasons, 1 they haven't had a Pharmacy tech teacher since April and students didn't have books for 3 weeks but they still charged them $15,895.00 for their program and dropped students(while still charging) for not showing up to a class that didn't have an instructor, mind you I was always told to never tell a prospect that the program didn't have an instructor but I definitely still had to fill the class. The EKG/Phlebotomy teacher wasn't even Certified and preyed on the younger students. Mind you that class also cost $15,895.00. I would often voice my concerns about this because it was my job to get the students to enroll and it was also my job to make $15,895.00 make sense (which it doesn't but I did a great job making it). When I voiced it they would gaslight me and add that my job is to enroll nothing else. Well since I felt bad about convincing these individuals to join a school with VERY outdated equipment (no hospital uses the machines they teach with), no teacher and very poor leadership (NO ONE knows who the director is because she stays locked in her office and she doesn't show any concern about them at all) I would only do the bare minimum. I was then written up and was told that I had to the 12th of September to set 30 appointments a week (mind you I don't even get 30 leads a week) or I would be terminated. I started mentally preparing myself to be fired because in 2 years I was the 4th admissions rep so I knew my time was coming. Well that time came today not only was I TERMINATED for not meeting the requirements by the 4th and not the 12th. They terminated me with no paperwork. When I asked the Director for the paperwork, as well as the paperwork from my 2 previous write ups that they never gave me no matter how many times I requested it, I was told she had to check and see if she could give me what I am asking for. I'm not upset at all that I was let go because I have been preparing myself to be removed because I was beginning to question character and integrity and God removed me from where I truly didn't want to be. But the manner in which they unprofessionally went about the matter is what led me to this post. Now that I can freely speak don't waste your time or money at that school! You will have to use Pell grant, subsidize and unsubsidized loans to pay for it and you will get NO REFUND check... save your coins and go to Delgado or Nunez or a free program

I would not recommend this school if you are planning to transfer the college credits. I've been…read moreasking them for over two months to send a copy of my transcripts and these people just aren't sending it. I don't even own money.

I can't say enough! I procrastinated taking any course from anyone because of my anxiety and fear…read more I have zero motorcycle/dirt bike experience. The coaches made me feel safe, they helped me get out of my head, they kept us hydrated and checked on us physically and mentally. (The summer course wasn't impossible buuuuuut I do wish I had done it in cooler weather but that's not their fault, it's hot in the south). I even impressed myself with my abilities by the end of the weekend. The coaches (Angel, Mat and Joe) all kept us laughing through the heat and fear but also pushed us and gave us very non judgmental and valid feedback/adjustments. They are so good at telling you what will make you perform better and ALSO showing you how to do it until you do get it. They WANT you to pass and it shows. The environment they created makes me now eager to learn more and considering my options at future training. Who knew a state required class at the right place with the right people could make me totally change my perspective on the culture too? 15/10 recommend. I even had my son certified with them (he's 19) and the staff were excellent mentors for him as well. plus the whole track area is really cool and it makes us wanna rush back to do the go carting. Im also blown away that they took someone like me who won't even ride a bicycle with no hands and made me able to ride a 400cc motorcycle! I feel so good about myself and am proud to have completed and it's all because of how they teach.

Nola Riding Academy is a blessing to have for the riders of the NOLA region. Taught by experienced…read moreriders, NRA teaches riders at any stage in their riding career. From learning to to start the bike, to riders looking to lower their lap times, Nola Riding Academy is there to help. My experience with Nola Riding Academy has been superb, and it has helped me tremendously. I went in eager to improve my technique to start decreasing my lap times, and Clint greatly helped me. I went for my second time the other day, and again had a fantastic experience. One thing that particularly stood out was the amount of track time I got for the low cost. For a cost that's a fraction of a track day of most tracks, I was able to ride at my leisure for four hours. I'm very excited to go back again!

My daughter wanted to get her license. She was 15 and I looked around and decided on Drive Dat…read moreAcademy. I liked the fact that I could reach someone when I called and they were able to answer my questions. I signed my daughter up on their website and selected the class schedule. I had pay a deposit and the rest was due at the first lesson. Well something came up and at the last minute I needed to change the date. I called them and it was no problem. The morning of class we arrived and they were well organized and well prepared. They even had coffee and pastries. Everything was on schedule. Parents are required to attend the first hour and then it's the teenagers for the next two weekends. My daughter attended and passed all of her tests. Finally she was ready to hit the road with one of their instructors. She had to complete 8 hours and take a test before getting her license. They prepared her for everything and now she has her license. I definitely recommend Drive Dat Academy. They are a no nonsense company that takes driving seriously. The don't cut corners and I feel that they prepared my daughter.

Awesome experience for my 15 year old. My daughter just finished a week of drivers ed. I like that…read moreit's centrally located in Metairie. Reasonable priced @ $50 deposit to reserve your spot in a class & the balance of $400 is due the first day of class. Parent orientation for the first day is required that last about 2 hours. My daughter did very well & she learned a lot. Now she will take 4 sessions of 2 hours worth of driving. I have been very pleased so far & would highly recommend them. I have had other people recommend them to me as well.

Cheer. For a long time I didn't know what the big deal was. I mean, it's just so easy to undervalue…read morethe sport until your 12 year old says she wants to become a cheerleader. To my surprise she seemed very excited about the idea which made me excited to get her started. I was open to it except I had no idea where to begin. "Who do I call? Is she too old? Ugh, how much will this cost?" Personally, I have no prior experience with cheerleading, whatsoever. Heck, I don't even know any cheerleaders and I consider myself a damn good Saints fan. I can WHO-DAT and holler but to get up there and cheer, well, it just looks so easy anyone should be able to do it, right? Wrong! I was so wrong. LOL To know my daughter and her ambition level I knew not just any cheer team would do. You see, I have a confession. I was at a loss. My daughter is very much a beginner and where does one go at this stage of the game? I was stuck at the, "I don't-know-what-I'm-doing", stage of the game. It just seemed hopeless especially since I wasn't getting any return calls or emails. And then after reaching out to the few teams I did try to get a hold of (and it's not easy), I got an email from Fran inviting us to check out a class and reassuring me not to worry that my daughter would be fine and no matter what level she is she would manage at her own pace. Whew! Now that the pressure was off we went to the first class. That was just a few weeks ago. And I must take this opportunity to compliment her coaches (that's right more than one coach, there are more than enough instructors) they are so knowledgeable and patient and even complimentary. In the little time my girl has been training with Fran, she has progressed so fast. I knew we were in the right place when I saw Fran grab a large rubber band so that my daughter would keep her hands at the right distance when attempting a back bend (you have to focus on not dropping that rubber band wrapped around opposite thumbs). LOL It's those tips that I appreciate so much. Fran is always paying attention to each and every girl who is training there. She makes sure to critique in a constructive way. And let me mention, these girls are HAPPY to be there. Even the coaches. It's such a warm environment that I would recommend this program to any girl or boy who desires to learn cheer in a competitive nature or even train to try out at any school. I never thought cheer was so serious. (DYNASTY CRESCENT CITY CHEER is just that good that you seek them out to train you for your junior high or even high school cheer team try-outs. I am so impressed and happy with my decision. The best part of competition tuition includes a trip to the beach for the grand finale at the end of competition season. I wish I would have started my girl with Fran years ago! Just to paint a picture: Inside Kids Sports location, very clean and no sign of "stinky feet" smell. New Equipment and lots of conditioning involved. Clean restrooms and waiting area inside the "gym". Bring a light jacket with you as the AC is cranked up for the athletes and coaches.
